Now 200 Just Stop Oil protesters spill into London streets and spread over 14 locations to disrupt traffic
Nearly 200 protesters have spilled into streets of London this morning as Just Stop Oil vows as ‘escalation of resistance’.
The climate change group is marching across 14 locations in the capital today during the morning rush-hour in hopes of disrupting traffic and crucial road networks. They allege that at least 15 demonstrators have already been arrested.
The eco-zealots have pledged to ‘paralyse London‘ over the coming weeks with slow-marching columns ten times bigger than any previous marches, to force the ‘murderous Government‘ – as they refer to it – to scrap new domestic oil and gas licenses.
Their controversial methods have long divided opinion as their protests cause major disruptions to the public by gluing themselves down to roads and airport runways.
Most recently, the group have been in the spotlight for halting play at Wimbledon and during a test match of The Ashes by throwing orange confetti. Protesters interrupted a live recording of the Channel 4 programme The Last Leg on Friday.
